Today is International Women’s Day and to celebrate, Girls in Tech would like to invite you to share in he International Museum of Women (IMOW) project “Women on the Map!” IMOW will spend this month compiling tributes to women who have made an impact in our lives. They are recognizing the countless women who are changing the world for the better on a daily basis. You can help by submitting your own “dedication” to someone who has made a difference in your life: your mother, a colleague, mentor, or friend…
It’s an easy, free way to celebrate them and give them special recognition. When you add your chosen inspiring woman her name and a message from you will appear alongside the names of hundreds of women across the globe. Their map will connect women across continents, creating a powerful visual representation of the vast, change-making impact women have on our world. The result will be a powerful visual representation of the vast, change-making impact women have on our world. To get started on your entry, click on their website, here.
You can also check out the inspiring stories of women around the world featured intheir current online exhibition, Economica: Women and the Global Economy. With topics like ‘Giving Women Credit’ and ‘Women’s Wealth’ it is a great way to find out how women are impacting our global economy.
